Established in 1870. The village of Beecher is 37 miles south of Chicago. The modest population ensures all the tranquility and slower pace of a rural lifestyle. Historic downtown has successfully shifted from a retail district to a business and professional center. Route 1, the Dixie Highway corridor, has welcomed an influx of new retail activity and a growing collection of light industry. It is located on the old Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad and the Dixie Highway.

Offering all the charm and friendliness of "small town America." Beecher features delightful neighborhoods and a housing selection that includes vintage brick or frame homes, stately mansions, newer ranches, two-story family homes, and modern tri-levels. Other highlights include heavily wooded home sites with horse privileges and a 27-hole public golf course. The soil is well suited for growing crops such as corn, soybeans, wheat, and hay.
